Is there really a need for this? I mean, I understand the need for a solid cabinet, and that some of the electricals and the driver can be pretty weighty, but really? I sometimes get the feeling that there's a 'never mind the quality, feel the weight!' thing going on.

So did my Boogie Mk4 1x12 combo which weighed 80 lbs... I had a real love/hate relationship with that amp...

People often mistake me for a grown-up because of my age.

Why do bad things mostly seem to happen to people who light up a room when they enter it?

When The Who sang, 'I hope I die before I get old,' I wonder if they were imaging how impossible it would be to carry a Vox ac30 up four flights of stairs if you have had a slipped disc.

Bunch of softies.

Instant gratification is actually pretty good. It's fast as well.

Our guitarist foolishly sold his Vox AC30 without telling us, he could carry it up the stairs before that, but after he told us, he couldn’t even walk down the stairs.
